Answer:
7.186
Explanation:
The mean is the average of some given data from a sample point.
To calculate the mean, we use the formula below:
Mean = ∑fx/∑f
Where f = frequency
x = sample data
From the given pH of the solutions, we can form a table:
x f fx
7.15 1 7.15
7.16 1 7.16
7.18 1 7.18
7.19 1 7.19
7.20 3 21.6
7.21 1 7.21
Now ∑fx = 7.15 +7.16 +7.18 + 7.19 + 7.20 + 7.21 = 57.49
∑f = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 8
The mean = 
= 7.18625 = 7.186
Answer:
mass of HNO₃ = 0.378 g
Explanation:
Normality = Molarity * number of equivalents
Molarity = Normality/number of equivalents
normality of HNO₃ = 0.30 N, Volume = 20 mL
HNO₃ ionizes in the following way:
HNO₃(aq) ----> H⁺ + NO₃⁻
Therefore, number of equivalents for HNO₃ is 1
molarity of HNO₃ = 0.30/1 =0.30 mol/dm³
Using the formula, molarity = number of moles/volume in liters
number of moles = molarity * volume
Number of moles of HNO₃ = 0.30 mol/dm³ * 20ml * 1 dm³ /1000 mL
number of moles = 0.006 moles
From the formula, mass = number of moles * molar mass
molar mass of HNO₃ = 63.0 g/mol
mass = 0.006 * 63
mass of HNO₃ = 0.378 g
